Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
A secular state does not confer privilege or favour on any particular religion. The Indian Constitution gives the fundamental right to its citizens to follow or adhere to any religious practice. It maintains that the government cannot discriminate against any individual based on religion. A person can choose any religion or change the religion of his will. A secular state does not prioritise a single religion as the state religion nor gives any privileges to a particular religion. However, it does not mean that a person is free to do whatever they want in the name of religion.
The correct statement is that a secular state does not establish any one religion as the official religion.
